The Forever King by Molly Cochran and Warren Murphy: The Arthur legend is reincarnated in modern times.

The Seer of Shadows by Avi: A photographer's apprentice learns he has a unique power.
Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen: Auden spends the summer with her dad and step mom and ends up on a quest with a mysterious quiet boy.
Favorites of the month: The Kite Runner was just as good for me the second time around. I also really enjoyed The Angel's Game and The Maze Runner. But once again, they were all amazing books!
And today, I finished the first one for the month of November, Fallen by Lauren Kate. More on that one later!
And now I'm off to a birthday party. Happy reading to all!
